weather-radar

Today (Thursday, 5/11) it’s supposed to rain. Not this morning — maybe this afternoon or tonight.
So before taking our dogs to the so-called elitist country-club, I decided to fire up my weather-radar; a Netscape bookmark. A dark cloud was approaching from the west.
So much for that — a good idea, but a generic site fired up requiring me to configure.
My weather-radar is supplied by MyCast, recommended long ago by the mighty Mezz webmaster — which he uses. It depicts weather-radar (and forecasts) specific to locations you set up; like “home,” “mighty Mezz,” and “mighty Curve.”
Seems this happened a few months ago. My favorites fired up the MyCast log-in site. It was like starting from scratch, although MyCast still had my locations.
Configuring will take 10-15 minutes I didn’t have then. We were headed to the park — configuring had to wait.
Cue almighty Bluster-King about the dreaded MAC platform — (SUPERIORITY ALERT!) — excuse me, but any platform would fire up a generic site the geeks set up for you to divert to. There also may have been a time-limitation.
Thank ya, Gates! OOOOOOOOOOHHMMMMMMMMM...............

(I am BobbaLouie Huey and I personally and heartily approve of this here bombast!)
